Mark Hoppus, a Singer, songwriter, and record producer has some happy news to share with fans: The Blink-182 frontman recently announced he is cancer-free. "Just saw my oncologist and I'm cancer-free," the singer further adds, "Thank you universe and friends, family, and everyone who sent support, kindness and love."

The musician has been documenting his battle with cancer in late June this year: Hoppus was diagnosed with large b-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), a type of cancer that takes over the white blood cells and formed tumors all over that body. Mark had gotten his fifth chemotherapy in August. Earlier this month, he shared his hair was growing back white.

"I feel like this is still the cancery peach fuzz hair and maybe my normal hair will start growing again? It's so strange to have hair growing back more on my head while my leg hair continues to fall out further and further down, now at the bottom of my shins," Hoppus captioned, sharing a post of his head.
